    ‘DALI’, was chartered by Maersk and operated by Synergy Marine Group, a ship management company based in Singapore

    … The boat is owned by Grace Ocean Private Ltd.

    this isn’t confusing at all

      Think it means, Maersk chartered or contracted the boat for shipping, the actual operating of the boat was done by Synergy, but the boat as property is owned by Grace.

      So like saying, company x contracted company y to perform work out of building owned by company z.
